+
+I needed to send a bit of inline code in some Markdown today and it needed to have a =‘= in it. I realized I hadn't done that before. I write code with =‘= in it somewhat frequently because Lisp uses it for quasi-quoting, but I always write everything in org syntax where you can use either ~=~ or =~=. But in Markdown if you need to have a =‘= in your inline code you need to wrap your inline code with more =‘= characters.
+
+#+begin_src markdown
+  `This is some inline code`
+  ``This is some inline code with a ` (backtick) in it``
+  ```This is some inline code with `` (two backticks) in it```
+#+end_src
+
+It looks like the sky might be the limit.
